Peer Navigators
Peer Navigators are current students enrolled in College of Liberal Arts majors whose experience and perspectives can help you make connections.
Whether you need help filling out an academic form, a friend to study with, or someone to simply chat with over a cup of coffee, Peer Navigators are a resource for other students in our College of Liberal Arts community. They work out of the Office of Student Services and are available for 1-1 appointments most days and times, Monday through Friday.
The family environment that Liberal Arts provides is absolutely amazing. Everyone within the college tries to get involved with their students as best they can and will never turn you away. The events this college provides always go above and beyond anything you would expect, always so fun and welcoming with photo opportunities! The Psychology department does a great job of staying in contact with their students and offering support with coffee hours every few weeks!
The faculty and staff at RIT go above and beyond for their students. The unique opportunities for research and exploration available for each program and each student in Liberal Arts are unlike anything else I’ve heard of. Here, if you take the time to reach out and make connections, you will find yourself with an incredible support system who will do everything to help you find your path within the college and beyond.

...Seriously just enjoy your time in college, whether it’s a straight road or has a bunch of ups and downs. Not everyone knows what they want to do in life, and it takes time and living that life of yours to figure it out. Coming to RIT, you have a bunch of options.

Having friends all around campus is what makes RIT so special. Making connections all over campus was my favorite part of my first year. Especially with COLA, there are so many events and opportunities to meet the faculty and fellow students of the college.
